Opportunities for primary schools

We are keen to support year 6 pupils with the sometimes difficult transition period from primary to secondary school and have designed a University Experience Day to make them feel excited about their future and encourage them to excel in secondary education.

As part of the University Experience Day, theatre company 2Engage deliver an interactive performance which introduces the changes that pupils will face as they embark on their journey, alleviating some of the common concerns about secondary school and showcasing the great opportunities available to them.

Students will discover more about university life by taking part in a mini campus tour and attending an exciting science lecture.

Aimhigher have also developed a number of useful resources for primary school pupils, which are available to download via their website.

The University Experience Day will be taking place later this school year, and firm dates will be announced soon. If you have a question in the meantime, contact Outreach Officer Ester Hill.
